This is good advice but I fear it's only a matter of time before scammers realize this and turn up as dates that are quite believable similar to your average Joe/Jane.

Maybe they don't want that. They don't want you as The Reasonable Guy show up and react upon all the warning signs and be a nuisance.

What they want is to have extra careless, out-of-touch guys to filter themselves in by responding to somewhat questionable profile.

Reminds me of how scammers will intentionally use bad grammar/spelling in emails to filter out "low conversion rate" prospects.
